Baby Shower

Last weekend was very eventful!  My sister in law Rachel threw a baby shower for me at her house on Sunday.  It was such a nice day.  Marshall took Cole to the lake while I was gone so I got to go to a grown up party without having to worry about my two year!  And to make it even better, I received lots of cute little baby stuff for Baby #2! 

Marshall and I have been racking our brains trying to come up with a name for our new little one.  It was hard enough trying to come up with a name for boy #1, let alone ANOTHER boy name!!  Of course we had our girl name picked out: Kennedy Marie Dinkins, but had no clue what to name a boy.  Boy names are so hard! 

Anyway, we made a little list of names that we were considering and those names included Levi, Tripp, Ryder, and Cooper.  And as most of you know, we went with Cooper.  I was definitely not trying to go for another C name on purpose, it just worked out that way.  I love how Cole and Cooper sound together!  We have some ideas for a middle name but we are not entirely sure yet so we'll probably keep that to ourselves for a little while.  But it won't be long (only 44 days) until we will have to make a decision! 

Here are the cute invites Rachel made for Cooper's shower:

The spread was wonderful.  With the help of my mom, Audrey, and Melissa, the food turned out delicious and looked so pretty too! 





I am so thankful for everyone who came to the shower and for my awesome family for putting it all together for me.  I know it's my second child, but it is just as special as the first in my eyes so I'm glad I got to celebrate the welcoming of Cooper with everyone!  I had such a great time and got lots of loot (not to mention 8 boxes of diapers)!!!  Woohoo!
